- 11" for CGE Mount
The 11-inch Dovetail bar (CGE) from Celestron is for mounting a telescope optical tube to a mount or to attach accessories to the top of the optical tube. Having an extra dovetail bar means that a telescope can have its tube rings attached to its own dovetail bar. To use a different telescope for the same mount, all that would then have to be done would be to slide the bar into the mounts clamp and tighten it.

question
Before I place the order, would someone kindly let me know whether the (1) Celestron HD Pro Wedge (B&H # CEHDPW MFR # 936640 and (2) Celestron 11-inch Dovetail bar (CGE) (B&H # CEDB11 MFR # 94219) work on my old type NexStar GPS 11 (purchased around 2002)? Thank you in advance for your help.Ram (1 July 2015)+++
Yes. The dovetail will work on a GPS tube. Not sure about your wedge question. You'd only use the wedge if you leave the telescope on the fork. You'd only use the dovetail for mounting on a Losmandy compatible GEM mount. The base of the GPS scope should fit the wedge if you leave it on the fork, however. Uncle Rod

question
My Celestron 11 HD-EDGE OTA use a very similar dovetail bar but there are two equally spaced screws on both side, identical to the ones on the far side, but different from the one screen hole on the near side. Is the stock photo correct? If yes, my tube will not have predrilled hole to host this dovetail bar. Please confirm.
It will not work, I bought one and the holes do not match the ones in the OTA as you mentioned in your question.
